Derivative

Labaton Sucharow has long maintained a reputation as a leader in shareholder derivative litigation, actions brought for the benefit of the company to remedy wrongs inflicted by its directors and officers. Our current caseload reflects this commitment to pursuing cutting-edge derivative cases.

From our New York headquarters and Delaware office, we litigate matters where company leadership engages in business practices that violate the duty to act with care and loyalty.

Excessive executive compensation, self-dealing transactions, sweetheart deals and corporate jets all cost shareholders tens of millions of dollars.

Our clients expect absolute integrity and transparency in the boardroom. They are serious about taking action when corporate misconduct occurs and they turn to Labaton Sucharow for resolution. Our reputation and experience as corporate governance reformers and experienced litigators allow us to achieve substantial results in the advocacy of shareholder rights.
